Judge Me

This is a spoken word poem for those who have been bullied or mistreated

You call me fat because of my size 

    You call me dramatic, a b***h when i speak my mind

You say I'm a stereotype when i state the facts

When I try to loose weight you assume I'm purging or starving myself to death

When i cry easily you think I'm pathetic

When I try to help people you say I have no life

That I'm just some pushover that doesn't see the truth

How dare you judge me

Ridicule Me for your own personal gain

You say I'm a baby when I'm scared of pain, or the yelling i hear

Do you walk in my shoes? Do you hear how i hear, see what i see

I bet you don't even give a damn about me

You just want to make my life hell

because you have no life of your own

You enjoy the sorrow in my eyes 

But in reality the sorrow in yours 

Judge Me! That's all you seem to do

I must say it is a good poem short but yet to the point! And in this era of time judging or assuming is normal, it is common, so a word of advice that I was given is that even though they might judge and down grade, they are just trying to hide their faults and flaws.

[Katie The Neko]

Even though its normal it still hurts but people like to throw your pain onto others and not expose that they themselves have them. Thanks

Wow I really like this, it has a lot of potential so truthful.
A lot of people should speak their mind.

[Sarah kizzia]

i love it. i can relate i'm judged when i where shorts or short selves because of what I've done to my self.

[Marta A.]

I've heard an idea like this before and I think that it really puts out a message that no matter who we are we will always be judged. Especially now. What I haven't seen in this kind of poetry before was the last part where you talk about the person who judge's. How they are truly the most hurt by words. How they are to weak to deal with their own flaws, that they find them in others. I really thought it was quite brilliant. Thank you for offering a new perspective on this topic :)

I wrote this in a spoke word sent i was always judged for my weight, Thank you for the compliment

[Sophy Freebirds]

It is the same here too ;p... you're welcome

[Sunya]

its packed with aggression and confident demand of explanation..very nicely written :) you know people always tend to say things no-matter what you do so its better to do things you love and be taunted rather than listen to things after doing things to please others :) universal love :) maybe coming soon :D

[Katie The Neko]

Thanks for seeing me through my writing. Universal Love sounds like a great poem to work on thanks on the suggestion!

[Phoenix]

I have been in your shoes, and it was not a surprise that I get to identify myself to the person in the poem. Sad to say, there are a lot of people out there who immediately judge people based on their physical appearances, when the truth is, they just try to displace their own frustrations to other people. This is such a bold take on defending oneself. if only confrontations where that easy....love the poem!

[Katie The Neko]

I hate confrontation myself. I love writing how i feel towards something I'm always honest with what i write. Some people just use a person to throw all there frustrations at. Thank you very much for loving my poem :)

Speak the truth woman, let them know that that is all they are good for. Some people find fault in everything that other people do, but the truth is that they are just miserable with themselves and they don't know how to handle it, so they take it out on other people. I have been there, but just know that they can only bring you as low as you let them. Wonderful work.

[Tangie]

I loveee this poem... Yes I have been in these shoes before with my weight.. People judge you so quickly before they even get a chance to know you...

[Katie The Neko]

Thanks so much :)

[Mari K]

This is good. It is better out loud most definitely. Maybe think about your stance in the confrontation. I.e, not that they have no lives of their own but more the misery they must feel to lash out at others. it makes your counter attack deeper

[Katie The Neko]

Thanks for the advice. Ill definitely keep that mind. :)
